Product Information Document Synthesizers and Samplers K-2 Analog and Semi-Modular Synthesizer with Dual VCOs, Ring Modulator, External Signal Processor, 16-Voice Poly Chain and Eurorack Format Rock Right out-of-the Box! Your K-2 comes ready to rock, thanks to its default signal routing that doesn't require lifting a single patch cable to instantly create amazing sounds. The semi-modular architecture lets you easily tap into the inspired sounds of 1980s and '90s progressive rock, wave, EDM and synth-pop music synthesizer tracks that made rock and roll history - or to design incredibly fat and original sounds that will make you a legend in your own right! Versatile VCF The very heart of K-2's sound is its versatile 24 dB/octave filter, which lets you freely experiment with the High and Low-Pass Cutoff Frequencies and their respective peak (resonance) settings to dial in the perfect sound. The high-pass filter sets the level of signals below the cutoff frequency, effectively reducing the fundamental and lower-order harmonics levels. The low-pass filter controls the level of signals above the cutoff, which reduces higher-order harmonic content. K-2's VCF Peak controls provide emphasis to the signals at the crossover frequency. Vintage Oscillators K-2's authentic Voltage Controlled Oscillators (VCOs) provides an incredible range of 4 variable oscillator shapes with variable pulse widths and ring modulation for the ultimate in sound creation. VCO 1 waveform choices include triangle, reverse-sawtooth, noise and pulse, where the pulse width can be adjusted from square wave to narrow across a 4-octave range (32', 16', 8', or 4'). VCO 2's waveform can be selected from reverse-sawtooth, square, narrow pulse and ring, where both oscillators are operating. VCO 2's pitch can also be varied independently across a 4-octave range (16', 8', 4' and 2'). The VCO Mixer allows you to adjust the levels of VCO 1 and VCO 2 to create an overall mix and a wide range of amazing effects. 5 of 10

Rock Right out-of-the Box!
Your K-2 comes ready to rock, thanks to its default signal routing that doesn’t require lifting a single
patch cable to instantly create amazing sounds. The semi-modular architecture lets you easily
tap into the inspired sounds of 1980s and ’90s progressive rock, wave, EDM and synth-pop music
synthesizer tracks that made rock and roll history – or to design incredibly fat and original sounds
that will make you a legend in your own right!
Versatile VCF
The very heart of K-2’s sound is its versatile 24 dB/octave filter, which lets you freely experiment with
the High and Low-Pass Cutoff Frequencies and their respective peak (resonance) settings to dial in
the perfect sound. The high-pass filter sets the level of signals below the cutoff frequency, effectively
reducing the fundamental and lower-order harmonics levels. The low-pass filter controls the level
of signals above the cutoff, which reduces higher-order harmonic content. K-2’s VCF Peak controls
provide emphasis to the signals at the crossover frequency.
Vintage Oscillators
K-2’s authentic Voltage Controlled Oscillators (VCOs) provides an incredible range of 4 variable
oscillator shapes with variable pulse widths and ring modulation for the ultimate in sound
creation. VCO 1 waveform choices include triangle, reverse-sawtooth, noise and pulse, where the
pulse width can be adjusted from square wave to narrow across a 4-octave range (32', 16', 8', or 4').
VCO 2’s waveform can be selected from reverse-sawtooth, square, narrow pulse and ring, where
both oscillators are operating. VCO 2’s pitch can also be varied independently across a 4-octave
